Therefore, in order to survive, overwintering larval amphibians must be able to respond to freezing temperatures via freeze avoidance (i.e. inhabiting environments that buffer individuals from freezing temperatures) or freeze tolerance (survival of extensive freezing of body fluids; [ 3, 34, 35]).
The eighteenth century Prince of Wales Fort in Manitoba Canada has experienced extensive freeze-thaw damage and mortar washout within the escarp walls resulting in distress and failures at multiple locations.
The event was caused by heavy summer rains followed by extensive freezing this winter, trapping the water in place, then a rapid spring warmup that has brought record temperatures to the region.
During the extensive settlement freeze, it rejected every reasonable compromise.
An early confrontation with President Barack Obama over settlements has softened over the summer into an ongoing negotiation with the president's Middle East envoy, George Mitchell, over how long and how extensive an Israeli building freeze might be.
Many of these survivors were freezing through extensive immersion in the water; nevertheless, they rowed through the night and next day.
To help reveal their origin, development, spatial and temporal distribution, turnover, occurrence and roles in adaptation to freezing temperatures, extensive studies are necessary (reviewed by Wisniewski et al. 2009).
Spectra reveal that P signals were more visible and intense in extracts from freeze-dried samples than from other sample treatments, being the improvement by freeze-drying more extensive for farmland and forest soils than for forest litter.
High rates of basal erosion are modelled beneath ice streams and outlet glaciers draining the Celtic and Fennoscandian ice sheets with extensive preservation elsewhere due to frozen subglacial conditions, including much of the Barents and Kara seas.
When 1000 ppm (0.1 wt%) DPPC dispersions were prepared with a certain protocol, including extensive sonication, they contained mostly frozen vesicles and were quite clear, transparent, and stable for at least 30 days.
